Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:4

- -
This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. -
This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 405 of the CHEK2 protein (p.Asn405Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs587780171, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or colon cancer (PMID: 17100999, 28779002, 28944238, 31206626). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 128050). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect CHEK2 function (PMID: 30851065). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
not provided Uncertain:3
The CHEK2 c.1215C>A (p.Asn405Lys) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 32906215 (2020), 31206626 (2019), 28779002 (2017), 17100999 (2006)) and colorectal cancer (PMID: 28944238 (2017), 17100999 (2006)). In a large-scale breast cancer association study, the variant was observed among the breast cancer cases and in healthy individuals (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/CHEK2)). This variant has also been reported to have a benign effect on CHEK2 cell growth in a yeast-based system, however other critical CHEK2 protein functions were not assessed (PMID: 30851065 (2019)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00012 (14/113274 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Published functional studies demonstrate a growth rate comparable to benign variants in yeast based assays (PMID: 30851065); Observed in individuals with colorectal and/or breast cancer (PMID: 17100999, 28779002, 28944238, 31206626); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 17100999, 28944238, 28779002, 32906215, 31206626, 30851065, 22419737, 19782031) -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:2
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Uncertain:1
According to the ACMG SVI adaptation criteria we chose this criterion: BP4 (strong benign): REVEL (aus Alamut): 0.009 ((0.003, 0.016]) --> BP4_strong (Pejaver et al., 2022) strength? -
